Kuwait Hospital Briefing on Siege and Humanitarian Politics
The press conference at Kuwait University Hospital focused on the crimes of the Saudi-led aggression and its blockade against Yemen, as well as its impact on the health sector, particularly the shortage of vital medicines and medical supplies due to the ongoing blockade and restrictions on importing pharmaceuticals, including anesthetics and emergency medicines. The statement condemned the politicization of humanitarian work by international organizations, holding the Saudi aggression responsible for the deterioration of health services. It pointed out that the closure of Sana'a Airport and limited transportation facilities have led to a severe shortage of essential medicines, while oppressive measures and detention have caused the loss of dozens of pharmaceutical items and a significant rise in costs. This has resulted in suffering for millions of patients and increased mortality. The statement called for an end to hostile actions and the reopening of all borders without restrictions, stressing that targeting the healthcare sector is a war crime and that humanitarian support must remain neutral and based on fundamental humanitarian principles.
